Worse stuff happens at the university I attend.

Delta Tau (DT) fraternity forces guys through a number of strange, if not grotesque obstacles, including an elephant walk and ipecac races (drink a bottle of syrup of ipecac and finish a case). It is rumored (although probably true) that the last initiation ceremony is to behead a dog.

PS if you don't know what an elephant walk is this DEFINITELY isn't the forum to discuss it.

The fraternal community was never renowned for their intelligence but that sure is a stupid generalization to make.

No it's not. I have employed students for over three years and they can quote quantum physics all night long. Ask them to an operate a till and your fucked.

is that happening over there, too?

i think of it as the junior rocket scientist syndrome

some of these people couldn't find their a.s.s.holes with a 10 man working crew
especially if they are the supervisor

when did incompetence become the new 'ticket' to a decent job?

On the opposite end is a bunch of zit-faced neckbeards complaining that even though they understand trigonomics nobody ever showed them how to run a till. I know, I've seen it first hand.
